Italian word
direttore
director, head, manager (of a department or organisation)
Looks like
director
a member of a company's board; a film/theatre director
⚠️ The trap
'Direttore' is used broadly for any managerial head, while in English 'director' usually implies board-level seniority. A 'sales manager' in Italian is often 'direttore commerciale', which sounds more senior than the English title implies.
To say "a member of a company's board; a film/theatre director" in Italian:
direttore (manager/head); consigliere di amministrazione (board director)
"direttore" in English means:
director, head, manager (of a department or organisation)
Example
"Il direttore commerciale ha presentato i risultati trimestrali."
"The commercial director presented the quarterly results."
